Description

The OldCombinerRunner class inside Task.java uses a NULL Reporter. If the combiner code runs for an extended period of time, even with reporting progress as it should, the map task can timeout and be killed. It appears that the NewCombinerRunner class uses a valid reporter and as such is not impacted by this bug.

The TestCode uses Depricated APIs and for the same @SuppressWarnings("deprecation") is also used.

I just ran the above tests without the patch, they seems to be running fine. Didnt get a chance to run it with the patch. Are the tests failing for you or is it just the hudson bot?
